Sunil Joshi, the newly appointed selector for the Indian Cricket team has said that it is an honour to serve the Indian cricket as chairman of the senior national selection committee for years in future. Cricket Advisory Committee chief Madan Lal and his team had confirmed the appointment of Sunil Joshi as the selector a few days ago after minutely checking all the candidates who applied for the respective post.

Being a former player himself, Sunil Joshi very well knows the struggles, injuries, and phases a player gets through in his cricket career. He used to play as a left-arm spinner for Karnataka and he has also captained the Karnataka Ranji trophy team to their success during the 1998-99 season as well.

After announcing his retirement from all forms of cricket way back in 2012, Sunil Joshi worked in multiple places as a profile across cricket.
